Phg5NSg0V_E Penn and Teller looking for opening acts for their Vegas Show. Lots of Magic (comparatively) on UK TV at the moment with BBC's "The Magicians". Spoiled a bit by the inclusion of celebs but still watchable.

The seventh season of Penn & Teller's cable TV show which I cannot name here (but which can be abbreviated "B.S.") is coming later this year. Penn Jillette is on Twitter, and he has mentioned working on the scripts for this coming season several times over the last two months. Assuming they do...

I just learned about Penn & Teller's Showtime series about different matters of skepticism, called ********. I don't subscribe to Showtime and I was wondering what different skeptics opinions about the show are. I've heard they've gotten into some hot water due to certain comments concerning...

I recently watched a wee clip on youtube about a wacko that ******** interviews at a UFO convention. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zUW4cXtczA&mode=related&search= What bugs me is the title - 'Fake UFO Society Fools Showtime'. It has a URL to the guy's myspace page at the end of it...

Discussing God and Religion. Just caught a short promo at lunch. Nothing on the web at CNN or Beck's site yet.

Great news! I am in contact with Steven, a Penn & Teller representative, and not only are we eligible for "group pricing" but because “quite frankly, we love you guys” we are going to get an extra discount – likely 25%. Retail price is $85.50. I will post shortly with our price once confirmed...

I've been keeping an eye out for one of the lunch/brunch eBay auctions, but haven't seen anything yet. Anyone know if these are going to happen again this year?

"Magician Penn Jillette" was the featured guest on "The Colbert Report" for November 1. Comedy Central will air this show one more time this evening (I believe), in case you missed it. Otherwise, Penn's segment might be available at the Comedy Central web site. Of interest are the parts of...

You'll love it. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8463073960287313294&q=penn+and+teller+********

Just found out there's apparently a Penn and Teller videogame called Smoke and Mirrors. Found precious little information about this on imdb.com http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0251322/fullcredits Anyone know anything else about this? Might be fun!!

In the light of the current interest in a small place called Dover, I think I should like to release a document that recently came into my possession anonymously. It reads like this: **** Start of Document ***** Intelligent Design. Restricted Access – please note that this document must...

When I first saw someone write this in a message board, without attribution, I assumed they were making it up because it is so silly. But I googled it and sure enough, it's true. Here it is, take a look. Go about 70% of the way down to the section titled "Sean Penn founders in floodwaters."...

If you're in earshot of Chicago radio stations, turn to WCKG 105.9 FM all week from 1:00 to 2:00. Penn Gillette is doing his own radio show! Knowing Penn, I'm sure many skeptical topics will come up. After his show stay tuned for Steve Dahl from 2-7 Jeff

I'm prompted to do this because of a rather good question: 'Are Penn and Teller merely entertainers?' And what sources would you cite to indicate otherwise? If indeed, you thought they were more than entertainers? I have on another computer, several essays by Penn that illustrate more than...

Next Monday's (6/27/05) Penn & Teller: BullSh*t will be on the topic of gun control.

Segment from Bullsh!t in Real Player format.

Channel 4. 10pm Sunday night. (UK) 'Faking It' is a programme where they take someone from a completely different lifestyle and teach them a new skill. After a few weeks they have to 'fool' a panel of experts. I think the chap in this one is a teacher - and they are training him to be a...

The cloaking device, famously used by the Romulans in Star Trek to hide their spacecraft from enemies, may yet become reality, thanks to US researchers. University of Pennsylvania PhD student Andrea Alu and professor Nader Engheta have written a paper for the journal Nature describing how a...

http://www.vivalasvegasweddings.com/live_internet_weddings_nov2004.htm - it's at the bottom under P.Jillette! :)

I honestly wasn't sure where to post this, but I'm pretty sure it's of general interest to the forum members and I haven't seen anyone else mention it, so: Showtime has announced the release of the second season of P&T's "Bull****" (the messaging program censored the title!!! :confused: ) on...

Discussing voting. And I quote - "We have to either start voting for loony third party candidates or not voting at all. If we keep voting for the lesser of two evils, it's going to keep getting more evil." I couldn't have said it better myself. Updated sig!!!

Penn will be reading and signing his new novel, "Sock" in NY, Philadelphia and Boston on July 6-8. Here's the info: I'll be at the Boston one; is anyone else going? Please PM me and organize!

I just saw the episode of http://www.randi.org/jr/040904that.html#5 that covered drugs and the war thereon. While, ideologically, I favor the legalization of the majority of drugs, there were three things about this episode that really stuck in my craw. 1) The whole "nobody has ever died from...

PENN & TELLER'S MAGIC AND MYSTERY TOUR [b] This aired on TV a while ago, but you can still see some clips of the shows on the web site (RealPlayer is needed.) I saw all three episodes (China, Egypt, India), and I should have taped them! Maybe, it will air again, or it will be released on DVD.

OK I feel strongly enough about this that I am going to explain how Penn's remarks changed my life. I'm totally serious when I write this. I am a deist, but when he said that we needed to be totally honest with people, and that we could be totally honest and still be liked, I was struck as if...

From the IMDB. "Sean Penn, whom many critics believe to be the frontrunner for a best-actor Oscar this year for his performance in Mystic River, has written a lengthy article for the San Francisco Chronicle about life in Iraq after his return to the country last month. The article, which could...
